“What did she tell you?” He inquired. His voice was calm as always. Richard couldn't get angry and make it worst for both of them. She was furious, and deep inside he also was but he had to conceal his anger so everything would work out perfectly for both of them.“What she told me? Do you think I'll right here asking you if I know about the contract both of you signed?” She yelled through gritted teeth, clenching her fists exasperatingly.He shut his eyes briefly, inhaling and exhaling deeply to calm his nerves. “Calm down, Charlene. I'm going to tell you everything you need to know, but you have to calm down.”“I am.” She snarled.“You are not.” She blinked rapidly, looking around the room she found her way toward the bed and sat down. She buried her face in her palm and cursed underneath. “Fuck you, Richard. You're making everything hard for us.” She gazed up at his face and peered into his eyes, waiting for him to start speaking.“Whatever Henrietta might've told is a lie. Don't

However, it was a mistake and he found it hard to forgive himself for what happened. Charlene was deeply hurt, and he couldn't comfort her because he was the one who brought tears to her eyes.On the other side, Henrietta was enjoying every moment of their throes, nothing seemed to inconvenience her since Richard hadn't spoken a word of leaving the mansion to her. She believed there was a chance for her, now that it appeared to her Richard still left a soft spot for her in his heart, and that alone kept her hopes up. She had made up her mind to seize the opportunity and made good use of it.The incident was a coincidence, he foolishly lost himself and allowed his emotions to get the best control over his action; he contemplated thoroughly how he could explain to her that it was a mistake without hurting her, she didn't give him the audience he needed. Besides, she didn't want to talk to him, shutting him out was all she could do to avoid a dispute and breaking down right in front of h

Henrietta was completely naked while he was left in his trousers. With his right hand full, he squeezed her breast tenderly before smooching it. She could feel his hardness against her thigh, her heart was filled with rapture, this had been what she always wanted from the beginning. She moved her hand to his face and leaned over to kiss him. However, he stopped for a moment, he gazed at her face and his urge was suddenly abated. “Henri?” He grunted with a tinge of irritation as he eventually pulled himself together. ‘What am I doing?’ They were both in bed while he was on top of her. He looked vaguely around the room. Everything became clear to him, he snapped from it and cursed underneath repeatedly.“Hey. What's wrong?” Henrietta sat up when he got down from the bed and picked up his shirt on the floor. She got close to him and put a hand on his shoulder. “Hey, look at me. Don't you want all this?” She was going to seduce him again and lure him to bed, this time he stopped her and s

Immediately after the second period was over the Invigilator came over and announced to her that it was over before collecting the answer sheet from her. Charlene put down the pen, taking a deep breath. She looked forward to the first person to rush in, Kathleen sauntered in with a big smile plastered on her face. “How was your examination?” She examined the IV fluid.Charlene yawned tiredly. “It sucks. You should have allowed me to go when you know you'll be this worried.”“You haven't recovered from yesterday's shock. I have to look after you. I was planning to talk to Richard to let you stay with me so I can watch over you for the time being.” Perturbed, she said.“For what? I only lost my pregnancy so I'm fine. I don't know why you're getting so worked up about it.” She glanced at the clock on the wall. “Charles should be on his way by now. I'll get some rest before he arrives.” It was obvious she was trying to avoid unnecessary conversation with Kathleen. However, she cried hers

“Charlene, don't you dare peek at my phone!” Charles yelled while chasing after her. Charlene didn't stop advancing toward the door, she grabbed the doorknob, twisted it, and yanked the door open. “Come get your phone if you can.” She winked at him and then dashed out of his room. Charles sighed with frustration. He walked after her. “You don't intrude on my privacy, Charlene. Give it back.” She started descending the stairs. “You won't tell me if I ask you anyway. I'll find out on my own.” She wagged his phone in the air. When she arrived in the living room, she halted at the sight of the person she saw. She was surprised to see him having a conversation with Mr. Knight.“Richard?” She flustered at him while moving closer to them. “Charlene, let me have my phone this instant!” Charles hollered imperatively while standing on the staircase.She didn't hear what Charles said as all her gaze was on Richard. The last time she checked, it had been two days since he went on a business
